murder begins in summer

From that year until early winter, both of them were extremely busy. Although Qiu Shili could be considered to have taken part of the uproar when Shi Zhanyang was in a coma, there were officials on the top to keep an eye on the bottom line, and agents on the bottom to make a fuss. Water, compared to the previous spring breeze, the vitality of the Shi family is still greatly reduced.

Now that Zhanyang, who is a big challenger, wakes up, rectifying the business is naturally the top priority at hand.He no longer joked with his subordinates as before, and drank casually together, but became reticent. Except for the necessary explanations, he didn't say a word of nonsense, with an overly calm face, and no longer put that thin smile on his lips.

Once, he told Qiu Shili in an ordinary way that laughing is also something that takes energy. If you laugh a lot every day, you will think less, and there is no point in forcing it.

But he still always smiled at Qiu Shili.

Qiu Shili counted the times and thought, this is because you don't have to force yourself to smile at me.

He was naturally elated.

During the period when he was in charge of affairs alone, Qiu Shili had heard gossip and rumors, including the weeks when he imprisoned his eldest brother on a deserted island for reconstruction. Holding it firmly in his hand, he couldn't hold back and rushed to the top.Said that he was about to change all the surnames from Shi to Qiu.It is also said that he deliberately harmed the boss and the second child, and now it can be regarded as a fisherman's profit.

It's almost like saying why should he meddle in a bastard he picked up halfway.

Qiu Shili's handling of this was simple and rude.He had no time for edification, but to find out who had said similar things carefully, and gather them together in a room.

There were four in total, and he pulled out four tongues.

Maybe there is a more humane and wise way, but Qiu Shili doesn't want to do it at all.He just killed, in a cruel and extremely painful way.He just does it with deliberation.Anyway, he had already killed so many, this time, even if it was for himself, just for the sake of pleasure, he admitted it!

But when he killed someone, it really hurt his heart.Putting down the dagger, taking off the medical gloves, Qiu Shili squatted down low, not understanding what went wrong.Indeed, all these troubles and pains were caused to some extent by his stupidity, and his various actions did not avoid suspicion. In the eyes of others, he may be a wolf with ambition.

But he is obviously the one who most wants to return this giant in his hand to Shi Zhanyang as soon as possible.

He can don't want anything, without any conditions, he can also retire on the spot, find a secluded place to be a farmer, and drive a tractor to plant corn.And in his heart, he wanted his elder brother to continue to need him, which was just a vague wish.

Therefore, when Zhan Yang came to his senses, Zhan Yang confirmed to him, "I want you." Qiu Shili didn't mention those harsh rumors once. He thought that the damn thing was already dead anyway, so he didn't need to look so wronged. , and made certain things seem so helpless.

However, Shi Zhanyang still knew everything, earlier than Qiu Shili imagined.A large part of the reason why he made the notarization of the will so decisively and left half to Qiu Shili was to slap some people directly in the face.He knew that the rumors had already started, and it was absolutely not enough to kill four people.

He also didn't mention his thoughts to Qiu Shili.

The reality in front of them is already very bitter, they are bound and driven by a lot of things, non-stop.Like Qiu Shili, he would rather make life smoother and more beautiful.

However, even if you are overwhelmed, you still have to pass the festival.On Christmas Eve, Shi Zhanyang had cleaned up the Shi family and almost returned to normal, both in terms of scale and operation.He and Qiu Shili went to Australia together.

Yu Feng, the fourth child, is already 17 years old. Last year, he played in F1, and he was in the Ferrari team, which was controlled by the Shi family.He usually doesn’t stay at the headquarters in Italy. He mainly participates in training at the base in the outskirts of Melbourne, not far from the famous Albert Park circuit. He lives alone every day and doesn’t seem to have made many friends.

Qiu Shili called and asked, "Shall we come to see you?"

When Yu Feng just woke up, he was very angry when he got up: "No."

Qiu Shili cleared his throat: "We must spend Christmas Eve together."

Shi Yufeng said awkwardly: "No need. When I was old, my legs and feet were not convenient."

Qiu Shili said "Hello" and asked again: "Brother, I only saw you once after waking up. Miss him?"

Shi Yufeng still had the lack of interest unique to teenagers, and said truthfully: "I don't really want to."

Qiu Shili was so worried that he pinched the bridge of his nose. Although Shi Zhanyang didn't ask for anything, he still wanted to liven up the special day of Christmas. In the past, the family used to spend it together. Now, after experiencing so many changes Qiu Shili was even more unwilling to see any lonely expression on his elder brother's face, and he did not want anything to show a sign of "not what it used to be".

So he resorted to a decisive move: "Let's take Xiao Hei there. It misses you."

Shi Yufeng really got the trick immediately, and even agreed to go to the airport to pick up the two elder brothers and his precious puppy.In fact, it is no longer a puppy. Xiao Hei was ten years old at the time, and he could at least be called Da Hei. Shi Yufeng always felt that it would die of old age one day when he left home, but he was alone, with more training and less free time. Even if he can't take care of himself well, he really can't take good care of this active hound.

Qiu Shili saw the boy's mind clearly, and so did Shi Zhanyang.When talking on the phone, he was listening on the side, looking at the black dog circling happily around his legs, and at Qiu Shili pacing back and forth, with a very leisurely expression on his face.

This time it was a light pack, Shi Zhanyang originally only wanted to bring a universal ナナ, but Qiu Shili insisted on bringing a few cronies like Shao Sanbazi, and asked everyone to bring a knife and gun, including himself.When the group arrived at Avalon Airport, it was seven days before Christmas, at noon.

The early summer in the southern hemisphere was astonishingly bright, and Shi Yufeng stood under such a shockingly bright sunshine, waving at a group of acquaintances who got off the small charter plane.

There was no training before the festival, but he was still wearing a loose fiery red team uniform, sipping a glass of ice soda in boredom, with a sleepy look on his face.

The scheduled shuttle bus hadn't arrived yet, and it was said that he was stopped by the ground staff halfway. Qiu Shili pressed the phone and went to look for it by himself, walking fast, looking like he was about to lose his temper.Shao San followed behind him, while Ba Zai hid aside and chatted on the phone with his new wife.

Shi Zhanyang was pushed into the shade by the butler, looked at Yaodi's newly dyed long silver-gray hair, smiled and said nothing.

He stared at Shi Yufeng with big eyes and small eyes. He stopped making out with Xiao Hei who was on his lap, and took out a new glass of soda from the plastic bag to his elder brother, saying, "Is it ugly?"

Shi Zhanyang wiped the dense water droplets on the soda cup casually, and the five letters under his finger, Pepsi, "When I was a teenager, I also seriously thought about growing long hair and dyeing various colors," he said, "and then go to When I was a rock singer and fans asked me to sign an album, I would write a swear word, or write, God is dead."

Shi Yufeng didn't hold back his laughter, once he matched up with the big brother and the rebellious rock youth, he would laugh happily.Having had enough fun, he said seriously again: "Do you know Kuaiyin?"

Shi Zhanyang raised his eyes, "I'll give you your comics."

Shi Yufeng thought for a while, and seemed to agree, but he was still so serious, with a pair of green eyes that were completely devoid of sleepiness, and sparkled brightly, "I want to be as fast as Kuaiyin."

This time it was Zhan Yang's turn to laugh, but he managed to suppress it while drinking Coke. He didn't want to inexplicably hurt the fragile and strong self-esteem of the kid on the first day of the holiday.

Bringing the housekeeper here, Qiu Shili didn't have to spend too much energy on those trivial matters, and he had a very happy Christmas this year.At this time, blizzards are raging in many parts of the United States, and snowdrifts even block the streets and crush forests. However, where he lives in Australia, the supply of sunshine is abundant all day long. It seems that troubles continue to flow, and he and Shi Zhanyang are here. Taoyuan lives in peace, enjoying the comfort brought by the latitude and the angle between the yellow and the red, and has no intention of going there.

Qiu Shili made up his mind to make up for all the things that were missing in the past few months. Whenever he had time, he would stay with Shi Zhanyang and walk along the coastline together. When the sun went down and the dark clouds covered the low sky, There are two strings of wheelchair marks on the sand, and there is a string of footprints in the middle of the fine marks; they are driving together on the coastal road, the sea is shining, and they are sitting side by side in the back seat of a spacious Mercedes, holding hands We sit together on the chairs, and sometimes, like a high school student who is bold enough to hide from his parents, he picks up a magazine and secretly kisses, while the fourth child who is in charge of driving wears round sunglasses and only cares about overtaking , didn’t seem to see anything; what’s more, they had to fall asleep together, lie awake together in the morning light filtered by the same curtain, even if it was the newspaper for breakfast, Qiu Shili would read the same one.

He also asked himself if it was too sticky, and if he suddenly served a table of big fish and meat to a hungry person, he would just die of it.In fact, he asked this question on the first day, but Shi Zhanyang told him with every move that he was thinking too much.

Shi Zhanyang smiled more, not only at him, the boss who hated laughing, but even at the young girl in the fast food cafe who helped him fetch the stirring stick from a high place.

At that time, Qiu Shili was waiting in a long line for his elder brother's black Americano and his own iced latte. In a blink of an eye, he looked at the self-service console and saw this scene.As he was nailed there, he felt a kind of nervous and fierce jealousy, and he kept thinking, how could this smile be directed at others, he thought, the elder brother didn't even know what he looked like when he smiled.

After thinking about it, he pinched the back of his hand fiercely, making red marks.He didn't want to think about where those inexplicable but hard-to-get rid of insecurities came from, so he could only warn himself to be normal.

Generally speaking, Qiu Shili was very pleased with Shi Zhanyang's straight-up increase in the number of smiles.

On Christmas Eve, there was a drizzle in the evening, and the clouds were so thin that it was difficult to cover the sky. Half of the twilight was blurred and dim, and the other half was still gorgeous.In an old villa by the sea, on the terrace on the second floor, under a pure white parasol, Shi Zhanyang was lying on a rocking chair and talking on the phone with an old friend who was far away in Israel, while Qiu Shili was leaning next to him, sharply and delicately an apple.

He concentrated on peeling the apple peel into continuous strips of uniform thickness.

He slanted the blade in again, turned his wrist, sliced ​​off a small piece, first tasted whether it was sweet or not, then sliced ​​another small piece, and fed it to Shi Zhanyang.Shi Zhanyang didn't talk closely, and most of the time he was listening to what the other person was talking about. When the sweet breath was passed to his mouth, he naturally opened his mouth and bit it, and ate it quite gracefully.

Qiu Shili arched his shoulders, rested his head comfortably on his chin, and immediately handed over another piece, while Shi Zhanyang sighed with his old friend that money is not easy to earn, and bit it again.However, this time, he did not rush to let go, but kissed Qiu Shili's fingertips while holding the apple in his mouth.

Obviously, Qiu Shili frowned, retracted his hand, and lowered his head to continue tossing the remaining half of the juicy fruit, but his wrist was suddenly caught.At that time, Zhanyang turned on the hands-free, put the mobile phone on the round table, wrapped his arms around his side, stretched them down, and was holding his finger bases.

The knife was taken off, and so was the apple, and they were left aside together. Shi Zhanyang inserted his fingers between Qiu Shili's fingers, interlocked his fingers and held them in front of him, and gently rubbed the bone peak with the tip of his nose and the corners of his lips. With a hoarse voice, he casually said Merry Christmas to the other party, which was about to say goodbye.

Qiu Shili gently curled up his knuckles.

Shi Zhanyang clenched him tightly and kissed silently one after another.

Qiu Shili blinked his eyelashes suddenly, the other hand was still free, it was a little sticky with sweet juice, he didn't care, he stroked quietly into the gap between the two fronts of his elder brother, the palm was full of Shi Zhanyang also hangs up the phone just right with his muscular lines, and the two of them are immediately entwined, breathing together, it seems that lips are much more delicious than apples.

Soon the rocking chair began to shake violently, and Qiu Shili was sucked with a few purple marks on his neck, he almost cried out, and pulled up the end of his belt. He was just about to take the next step, when the balcony led to the The small door of the restaurant on the first floor suddenly rang a few times.

Qiu Shili lowered his waist in an instant, lay on Shi Zhanyang's body, and looked in that direction along the edge of the chair—under the dark sky, Shi Yufeng was wearing a white T-shirt with Super Mario printed on it, looking around. After looking twice, he actually met his eyes and walked over quickly.

Fortunately, there is a chair back to block it.

Why didn't you remember to lock the door?Qiu Shili bit his lip regretfully.

He untied half of the belt and hurriedly fastened it back. Shi Zhanyang's hand rubbing the ditch of his back also temporarily stopped, and looked at each other briefly, both dumbfounded.Both of them were still wearing pajamas and pajamas loosely, because they had just taken a shower—since they were going to bed late on Christmas Eve, they would not be able to do other things leisurely that night, so they simply had a good time in advance, which can be said to be a rainy day .Now, within two hours of finishing the matter, he almost caught fire again, but the result was unsuccessful, and he even softened all of a sudden, which seemed to be what he deserved.

Serve it right!Qiu Shili immediately denied his thoughts, but obediently gathered his clothes and stood up, pretending to be sleepy, and wanted to cover his mottled neck, but felt that it was too deliberate, so he had to give up .

"Sister-in-law," Shi Yufeng looked at him upright, "Bo Feng is not sure what red wine to drink for dinner, and he is looking for you."

"Where is he downstairs?" Qiu Shili looked at the oxidized apple on the table.

"Underground, in the wine cellar." Shi Yufeng said.

When Shi Zhanyang noticed the inconspicuous blush on Qiu Shili's cheeks, he was very satisfied. He saw him hurried away, with his head bowed and his arms hugged, like a child who was sulking, eating half of his little meat. Half of the unhappiness of being ripped apart was dissipated.

"When Shi Shi came to see me personally." He looked at Shi Yu Feng who was standing still.

"I have something to ask you." Shi Yufeng didn't push him this time, and sat on the floor with his legs crossed, serious to the point of distress, "Really, I can't figure it out!"

Shi Zhanyang said happily: "Say."

Shi Yufeng hesitated again: "I can't ask for nothing."

Shi Zhanyang thought that he would struggle for a while, so he took out the thing he was polishing recently from his pocket, compared it on his fingers, put a rough-toothed file on top and continued to work.

But when Yu Feng suddenly moved closer, "I learned massage by watching a video," he said quickly, "I'll ask after I press it."

After finishing speaking, he began to deal with Shi Zhanyang's sick leg. He beat and pinched fiercely through a layer of silk pajama pants, and his movements were quite calm. The hands that were used to holding the steering wheel were really strong. Shi Zhanyang was even beaten by him. Press out a little perception.

Although it is not too uncomfortable, this situation is really weird. It is different from Qiu Shili's occasional massage. Shi Zhanyang only feels that his thigh is like a beef tendon on a chopping board. After breaking up the muscle tissue and sprinkling some Mexican spices, he can enter immediately. The oven is off.

"Stop," he shouted, "fourth brother, forget about it!"

"This is useful!" Shi Yu Feng also shouted.

"Then don't ask your questions." Shi Zhanyang pulled Yaodi's wrist from his leg.

Shi Yufeng couldn't hold him back in strength, and was so painful that he jumped up and shook his wrist, glaring at his elder brother.

Shi Zhanyang completely ignored it and continued to do his little handiwork.

"What are you grinding?" Shi Yufeng asked sullenly.

Shi Zhanyang was also magnanimous, he picked up the small rough metal ring with two fingers, straightened his arms, and used it to cover the half-sinking sunset above the sea level, "ring."

"What was it originally?" Shi Yu Feng lowered his eyes and asked again.

"Bullets." Shi Zhanyang put the ring on the end of the little finger, carefully polished the edges and corners cut on the outside, and added: "The bullet casing of the 12-gauge shotgun is made of copper-clad steel."

"Who did it kill?"

Shi Zhanyang smiled: "Hey, how can the bullets that have killed people be used to make rings. I used to use this kind of gun to shoot wild boars."

Shi Yufeng's eyes were shining, but he frowned. He was curious, and looked at the small size of the ring, "You didn't wear it yourself."

"Indeed." Shi Zhanyang nodded, put the tungsten steel file and the ring back into his pocket, didn't mean to explain any more, just turned his face and concentrated on looking at Brother Yao who was still exploring.

"I didn't understand before." Shi Yu Feng sat back on the ground and put his hands on his knees, "How could you like someone so much?"

"Now I understand." He said again, "I also have someone I like so much."

Shi Zhanyang's eyelids twitched, and he smiled vividly: "Then congratulations."

Of course he knew who it was.He and Qiu Shili had seen it clearly for a long time.The so-called idol who fell in love at first sight on TV, the so-called impulse to plunge into the racing track, and the so-called reason for being depressed now——

Sure enough, Shi Yufeng closed his eyes, "So what I want to ask is," he did seem to have made up his mind, "how do you pursue someone you like?"

Shi Zhanyang thought about it very seriously, and said, "Be kind to him, so good that you find it unexpected."

Shi Yufeng sat upright, thoughtful.

Shi Zhanyang said again: "You have to say it, let the other party know what you like, and at the same time realize that your like is a very good thing, and he can't live without it."

"This...I can't do it now."

"Then don't chase."

Shi Yufeng was a little anxious: "It's because he doesn't know me at all, and he doesn't know how to contact me. He has no chance to know me or understand me."

"Can't meet?" Shi Zhanyang asked.

Shi Yufeng didn't say a word, but Shi Zhanyang knew that he really couldn't see the unlucky face-blind world champion who had been hidden by Qiu Shili, an old classmate, to avoid possible pursuit in the future. In Yu Feng's eyes, this matter is just rough and absurd as "the person I like suddenly retired and disappeared mysteriously". For a 17-year-old boy whose life is so simple that he only drives, sleeps and fights when he is bored. There is a way forward.

Shi Zhanyang sincerely sympathized with his little brother who had finally enlightened, softened his voice, and said again: "I don't think I won't see you again for the rest of my life, although you don't have a chance for the time being."

Shi Yufeng was unwilling to admit that there was no chance, and instead asked: "What should I do if we meet each other? If we only meet once."

This still needs to be asked?Shi Zhanyang thought, what do you do to the person you like, shouldn't you follow your own habits and ideas?I have passed on all the tricks to you.At the same time, talking for a long time around such a small group of small thoughts also gave him a bad illusion of being a mother, so he simply started talking nonsense, trying to end this meaningless conversation as soon as possible, "It's good to be strong! As long as You can beat it."

Shi Yufeng was taken aback: "Huh?"

Shi Zhanyang said with certainty: "There is only one side, if you don't do it to the end, you will regret it."

Shi Yufeng was greatly surprised, "You...do the same to Qiu Shili? What if we can only see each other once?"

Shi Zhanyang was almost choked, well, his little love is clear in the eyes of this little kid, think about it carefully, how many of those who have known each other for a long time and have a close relationship can see through it but not tell it?Even the eldest brother and sister-in-law were called.

Of course, as long as Qiu Shili doesn't object, Shi Zhanyang doesn't have any objection to this, but just pretends to be surprised: "Ah? What's the matter? Of course not! How can I be willing to treat him."

This is the second time Shi Yufeng jumped up, he shouted angrily: "Old Shi, you are not human!"

Shi Zhanyang laughed out loud, which was rare in recent times, and he was genuinely hearty, "Shi, you are not a man!"

He admitted that his taste was rather low.

But after thinking about it, the fourth child is tough and shy, and he really doesn't know anything about love. If the nonsense just said, if he leads him astray, it will be too bad, after all, it's his own nerves.Shi Zhanyang stood up on one leg, supported the coffee table, and sat firmly in the wheelchair by himself, "Sorry, I was talking nonsense just now, of course rapists deserve to die," he raised his hand and patted Shi Yufeng's big arm, sinking his heart Said, "This is what I think. Before you seriously and comprehensively consider how to pursue a person, you should first think about what your liking looks like and whether it is worth others' need."

"Of course it's worth it!"

"is it?"

"You said before that you have a person in your heart, even if you are willing to spend money or kill someone for him, I can do it."

Shi Zhanyang thought about it carefully, and there was indeed such a thing. It should have been five or six years ago. He and Qiu Shili took Brother Yao to see some love movie...

He should have looked at Qiu Shili and said it at the time, with a kind of youthful, ordinary pride in his heart-the two of them have done both of these things, to each other, right?

"That was my previous idea." Shi Zhanyang began to slowly turn the wheelchair towards the edge of the terrace. The sea color had already darkened again, and it was about to return to silent black in a blink of an eye. He really wanted to see the last few touches of deep red. Grab a handful and see.

"Then you have changed?" Shi Yufeng asked loudly as he pinned behind him.

Shi Zhanyang stopped before the railing.

"You can't afford it now?" Shi Yu Feng raised his voice.

"Can't afford it?" Shi Zhanyang turned around abruptly, his voice actually yelled past a reckless young man like Shi Yufeng, as if he wasn't yelling at Shi Yufeng alone, "It's not enough! If you want to love someone, it's not enough to make such a little bullshit preparation!"

Shi Yufeng chased after him: "Then what is enough? Die for him? Are you willing to die with him?"

As the night spread, Shi Zhanyang's eyes were extremely bright, so bright that it was chilling, and the two cold stars trembled with the sudden rapid breathing, "What is death, you have to live, you have to be able to let He lives well, and at the same time, it’s best to live with him.” Suddenly he smiled, “It’s too fucking difficult, but this is also the ultimate success. If you can’t do it, you just give him freedom.”

After the discussion about "the choice between ultimate success and freedom", Shi Yufeng fell into deep thought, and Shi Zhanyang sent him downstairs to call for someone, and waited for Qiu Shili to come over on the balcony to help him transport the wheelchair.

He now walks up and down the stairs with a cane under his armpit, and he can ask anyone to lift the wheelchair, but he likes "troublesome" Qiu Shili, because he knows that this little "trouble" can make Qiu Shili feel safe.

Less than a minute after Shi Yufeng went downstairs, Shi Zhanyang's cell phone rang. Qiu Shili said that he was making a Sichuan-flavored spicy boiled fish according to the recipe, and it would be out of the pot immediately, and asked him to wait for a while.

Even his voice was light, and he seemed to be enjoying the cooking process very much. Shi Zhanyang pinched the bridge of his nose and smiled silently. Among Chinese food, he likes Sichuan cuisine the most. Although Qiu Shili's cooking skills are mediocre, he always remembers this incident.

Both of them didn't hang up the phone, Qiu Shili put his mobile phone by the stove, and the excitement of frying pots and pans reached Shi Zhanyang's ears, and he turned on the computer to read today's emails.Private mailbox, the scope of knowing is very narrow, and there are not many emails. The top one comes from an encrypted mailbox. Shi Zhanyang knows that at the end of every year, he will receive such a mysterious letter, which will be automatically destroyed after opening. The so-called burn after reading.

As for the person who wrote the letter, it was the "Million Meeting" that held a grand auction on the cruise ship every two years.In the year without auction, this is just a simple New Year greeting, and in the year with auction, the collection information will be included in this email.

The collections are all kinds of strange things, and there are not a few illegal ones. This has long been a tradition of the million meeting. The specific content is kept secret from most of the participants and only disclosed to a small number of old customers. Shijia is certainly one of them.

Shi Zhanyang hadn't attended this kind of party where money was spent to buy the limelight for many years. He had no interest and no time. He took Qiu Shili there back then just to buy a knife to stand up.Considering that this year is the new year, he only intends to browse through the mail casually when he opens the email, and then he hurried downstairs to eat his boiled fish to spend his Christmas Eve.

However, the third column of the collection list grabbed all his thoughts and made him fix his eyes there.

Lot Name: Chinese Surgeon, Cardiac Surgery Specialist

Supplier: Risako Eguchi (Japan)

In the position of the lot picture, an old and haggard man was naked, as thin as a bone, silently looking at the camera, tall and with only one ear.
